That's interesting. I think the issue the teachers faced was not so much
knowing that the right person sends the email, but that they wouldn't know
the person in the first place. "Don't talk to strangers" needs to be
tempered with judgement. Using it in a blanket statement for a school policy
is a little paranoid, and leads to more opportunities missed than dangers
avoided, I feel.
